RAMJET

thanks, that is good info, will investigate that ramp next time, will gladly pay a reasonable launch fee. fshndoug, I agree with your wise man statement.

reviving a real old post here- I was kayak fishing the upper end of Tanyecomo last weekend and noticed the abandoned ramp just above where fall creek enters. It is blocked by boulders and a giant log, but would still work for kayak launching. There is parking in the area around the top of the ramp. I called Fall creek marina and the person I spoke with said he did not know who's ramp it was or who to ask about it, but was like, sure, use it for kayaks. It looks to me like it is part of the fall creek condo developement. Anyone ever put in a kayak or canoe there? Yes there is often strong current and deep water there, also a rock dike at the mouth of the creek, and strong current directs straight at the fall creek docks, a bit downstream, so caution would need to be used. I can see why it got blocked off, does not seem like a good situation at all for boat usage. I use a tarpon 120 kayak with a trolling motor (4 to 5 mph) and went from cooper creek up to the dam area and back twice over the weekend. Still 30 percent left on a 24 size deep cycle battery after round trip. (never float past your takeout and plan to paddle back in case they release, its just common sense) It is a high end sit on kayak model that many use in the ocean. This setup works well for me for a combination of wade fishing the upper area and drift fishing the rest. I can carry several each fly rods and spinning rods, cooler and plenty tackle. I make myself very visible to boaters, the wakes do not bother me in the least, and always wear a good PFD. I also have a 20' Champion but would not be able to get up far enough in low water where I like to flyfish at lower water levels, and besides can't bring it when we use the camper. Would be nice to be able to launch in the fall creek area and cut the distance in half, with or without a shuttle. Any other known launch possibilities in that area? I did notice another private ramp on the opposite side a little further down lake, just above short creek. I only get down there once or twice a year, but really like the fishing there.
